FAQs
Who may participate in the CECU PAC?
The Federal Election Commission has determined that a trade association may solicit only the restricted class of member institutions and allied member companies, i.e., their executive and administrative personnel, for contributions to the PAC. However, before the PAC may solicit, CECU must obtain written authorization (a signed Prior Approval Form) from the member institution’s principal CECU member. Please contact Deepti Taneja, who will assist you in obtaining a Prior Approval Form.
Who decides where the PAC money goes?
The PAC is governed by a diverse committee. PAC contributions are determined by a collaborative effort involving the CECU Government Relations team and the committee.
What percentage of my contribution actually goes toward candidates?
100% of your PAC contribution goes to support Federal candidates for office. Federal law permits associations like ours to establish and support political action committees. CECU pays PAC administrative and operating costs.
